SELECTION METHOD:

ARE THEY EFFECTIVE?

•Three key terms related to effectiveness

VALIDITY

RELIABILI

TY UTILITY



RELIABILITY

• Refers to the consistency of measurement (across time and jud

• Shows uniformity of the score when retested with same test

• Reliable methods have correlation coefficient 0. or higher (!R"#

• Sat# *R% and *"'T considered highly reliable test

• Test retest# s+lit halves test etc. used to measure reliability



VALIDITY
